TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS

Problem Possible Solutions

My camera does not auto-discover

Videos are slow

My camera appears disconnected

I can’t get playback video from my camera

I get an ‘unauthorized’ message on my camera

1. Is the camera in the same LAN network as the Media Ser ver?

2. Is your camera compatible with DW Spectrum? (Refer to our website for full list of supported cameras.)

3. Is the camera updated to its latest rmware?

4. If your camera is integrated with DW Spectrum via ONVIF, make sure ONVIF is enabled on your camera.

5. Try adding the camera manually.

6. Try rebooting the ser ver after installation. Allow up to 2 minutes for the server to map your network and detect all supported devices.

1. Are you accessing the same cameras from multiple clients? (LAN & WAN)

2. Do you have a Gigabit network? Check your network speed.

1. Under camera settings, make sure the user name and password are correct.

2. Under the camera settings, use the ‘Ping’ button to make sure the camera is connected to the network properly.

3. If you can connect to the camera’s web viewer, try rebooting the camera and/or restore it to factory default.

4. Make sure your camera is using the latest rmware available.

5. Make sure that the camera is connected to the same network as the server.

6. If you are connecting to a camera that is integrated with DW Spectrum via the ONVIF protocol (see list), make sure ONVIF is enabled.

7. Make sure your user has permissions to view that specic camera.

1. Do you have network connection between client and server (in case ser ver and client are not on the same machine)?

2. Make sure your user has playback viewing permissions for the selected channel.

3. Make sure the camera is set to a recording mode that would provide recorded video for the selected time and environment.

4. On the server side, check the media server log to make sure the camera you are trying to watch has not been unexpectedly disconnected.

1. Make sure the camera’s user name and password are properly entered in the camera’s general information under the camera settings menu.

2. If necessary, try rebooting the camera to apply the camera’s user name and password.
